When you think of curry, how many of you think of that bright yellow powdered spice mixture, or a veggie or tofu dish made with it? Yeah? Me too. Or at least I did, until my first look through the newest addition to my cookbook collection, Vegan Richa's Indian Kitchen. Then I learned that "curry" is… Continue reading Spicy Baked Cauliflower Florets from Vegan Richa’s Indian Kitchen & Giveaway!
When I was young, I somehow ended up at lots of banquet-y type things. Wedding receptions, award ceremonies and holiday celebrations... and there was a restaurant near our house that we went to occasionally that was a banquet-y type of place. When the adults were having drinks with dinner, what was my beverage of choice? A… Continue reading Vegan Chocolate Covered Cherries
I've noticed that I'm a little behind on celebrating these National XX Days. Apparently today was National Grilled Cheese Day. I wonder what's coming up next. Does anyone know?

It's been a whirlwind few weeks! I was in Europe for 2 weeks, teaching vegan cooking classes and exploring all the great vegan places everywhere I went.

Last year, I had the good fortune to do recipe testing for Ricki Heller's upcoming cookbook. The recipes were so amazing and creative, and now that I have the book in my hands, I see that it's so much more than a cookbook. Candida, is a yeast that naturally occurs in the human body; but when… Continue reading Living Candida-Free ~ Recipe and Giveaway!
So I've been dealing with some things lately. The kind of things that you're not quite sure why they started or what they're doing, but you go to the doctor and they tell you you're fine. Oh, so this is what "fine" feels like ... ok. I'll talk about this more in time, as it… Continue reading Ginger-Turmeric Lemonade
How messy do YOU get in the kitchen? Nothing personal, it happens to the best of us. Between the pomegranates that make you look like you committed a murder, to the Kitchenaid mixer that gets batter on the ceiling, there are lots of things that create messes for us. I think I had to replace… Continue reading Flirty Apron Giveaway!
A couple of weeks ago, I had the fun of catering the food for a baby shower for some friends. It was really beautiful ~ a garden-party afternoon tea on a warm sunny day, with lots of happy people joining the celebration. The food was afternoon-tea style, with little crustless sandwiches, fruit salad with cashew… Continue reading Herbed Probiotic Cashew Cheese
